Deliver me - Isaiah 55
He wasn’t thirsty nor did he yearn for food
For he had already found nourishment in Your words
He didn’t spend money on things that did not satisfy
But he clothed the naked
Housed the homeless
Sought healing for the sick
As You asked
He gave his ears and listened to Your words
Promises of an everlasting covenant, faithful love
He united people
The masses sought unification through him
They were drawn to the light in his eyes
His kind smile
He had a way with people, but You already know that I’m sure
Omniscient.
He looked for You
Found You within the walls of our community church
Witnessed Your presence in the heart of his wife
Your protection in his happy and healthy children
You tell the wicked to forsake their ways and unrighteousness thoughts
That You may have mercy on them
You save Your mercy for the wicked and forget to take care of the good
I asked You to give him peace and You answered my prayers with death
Did he accomplish all that You desired?
Was the purpose for which he was sent to earth already completed?
You command me to go out in joy, lead forth in peace
But my soul has been crushed
My faith locked behind the steel walls of anger
Sorrow its guard
I am thirsty but cannot drink
I am hungry but will not eat
For it was the same hand that fed him that numbered his days
My Heavenly Father
Deliver me from the evil of Your ways
